1998 Map of Moriah

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

North Fork Embarras River winds through this rural landscape on the border of Clark and Crawford counties, defining the agricultural and industrial character of the region. The map reveals a high concentration of active resource extraction, with numerous Oil Fields and a Quarry dotting the terrain near the small settlements of Moriah and Hogue Town. These industry markers are interspersed with small Cemeteries, providing specific points of interest for genealogists tracing local families in Johnson and Orange townships. The drainage patterns of Mounts Branch and Panther Creek illustrate the creek-bottom topography that influenced the placement of early homesteads and road networks. Farther south, the village of Bellair serves as a local hub near the winding river, while the oddly named Moonshine stands as a notable landmark in the eastern portion of the survey.
